Edited answer:

Compost is used as a manure before sowing of the crop and top dressing is done with nitrogenous fertilizers like urea etc. Hence top dressing of tomato plants with compost is uncalled for.

How do you keep top of tomato plants from sagging?

Most tomato plants need to be surrounded by support stakes or manufactured support "baskets" available at Home Depot, WalMart, etc.... If you can't find these, use my grandfather's method: Insert 1" x 1" stakes in the ground around the plant about 3' high, then tie strings around these stakes about every 6". Gently rest the limbs of the tomato plant onto the strings for support.

As you move further down into the soil profile, there is less organic matter and the soil tends to become lighter in color.


I need a nice table top compost bin where can you find this?

A table top compost bin does not sound like a very good idea unless the table is located outside.

You may be thinking of a worm compost bin. These can be kept in the kitchen and should not be smelly. You can find these at many Garden centers or online. I got mine from gardensalive.com
